Ssam Kim, Seoul

Description

This striking monochrome editorial photograph by Ssam Kim features a long-haired man standing confidently against a textured background with vintage neon signage. The subject wears a light-colored, silky button-down shirt tucked into dark, loose-fitting trousers with a belt, and subtle neck tattoos are visible above the open collar. He poses in front of a tufted leather sofa, with wisps of smoke or haze drifting through the atmospheric lighting. The high-contrast black-and-white grading emphasizes texture and shadow, creating a moody and cinematic mood.
